So did Karl Rove write his own pardon before he walked out the door?

Would Rove be acting and speaking as he is doing if he had not already been assured of a complete pardon by Bush?

His actions are repugnant to the law, and he is acting as if the pardon is already signed and in his hip pocket.

1. Is anyone following up on this?

Staking out his houses? Surely the press has the means to find out where he is.

on how to stay in power.

2. It's the only way he could be sure...

his name would get spelled right:

No George, it's "K", not "C"... Here, just let me do it!

7. I thought that was the main reason for going after him first.

So if they don't make him obey that subpoena and testify under oath like the rest of us mere mortals must, I guess we do have a monarchy. The king and nobility are above the law, but the rest of us commoners aren't.

8. Everything has the stench of known atrocities and rule in the worst kingdoms of history.

They snuck one over on us. For decades we ate and slept their propaganda. Slowly, then suddenly it all became transparent to most of us, but they don't give a damn. They rule, but they don't quite own us all yet. Brought on us with the stench of inhumanity.

Notice that there is a touch of abuse and torture garnered from every ism and reign in history, with most emphasis on fascism and rule by kings and lying messengers.

Maybe they will soon start eating their own.

9. I don't think it is about Rove but about the rule of law in this country.

He's not the only one who is walking away with no consequences for criminal behavior.

We have a problem. :shrug:

10. I don't think he gives a rats ass either way,

pardoned or not. his behaviour is that of a person who is convinced he's above any and all laws.
